One of the most significant contribution is Euler's Formula which relates the value eiθ to sine and cosine. Mainly,when θ = wt (w is omega, representing frequency, and t is time)
Aeiwt = Acos(wt)+Aisin(wt), where cosine is the "real" portion of the number and "sine" is the imaginary.
Another way to think of this is by making an axis system where real numbers are on the horizontal (x-axis) and imaginary number are on the vertical (y-axis) then the cosine value would be the number on the x-axis and the sine would be the number on the vertical axis. (This is similar to how you disect the unit circle.)
